We've been without internet here at TGC for the last three days, which the IGF Finalists should be thrilled with because I ended up playing all of their games(minus the web-based)…. a LOT. Now that we're back, I was cruising through the indie gamer blogs and discovered Jon Blow's criticism of this article on GameCareerGuide.com, which was then reprinted on Gamasutra, which gave some advice to people wanting to break into the industry. Chris Hecker put together a NEW list, after a conversation between him and Jonathan Blow, which I would call the REAL New Year's Resolutions for Game Industry Newbies.

From Hecker's post:

“I'm sorry, and no offense intended to the good folks at CMP who I love like family, but this list is misguided at best, and slightly harmful to people who want to get into the industry at worst.

I mean, hello? How about make a game? “
